Palmetto Profiles
The South Carolina Encyclopedia Guide to the South Carolina Hall of Fame
Published on the fortieth anniversary of the opening of the South Carolina Hall of Fame and drawn from biographical entries in The South Carolina Encyclopedia, this guidebook presents concise profiles of the inductees from 1973 to 2013. Palmetto Profiles, like the Hall of Fame itself, serves as a tangible link to South Carolina's rich and complex past to the benefit of residents, visitors, and students alike. The volume also includes illustrations of all inductees and a foreword by Walter Edgar, a 2008 Hall of Fame inductee, author of South Carolina: A History, and editor of The South Carolina Encyclopedia.
Reviews
"In its first forty years, the South Carolina Hall of Fame has established itself as an inspiring celebration of some of our state's most exemplary citizens. It is my honor to be counted among them. The Hall of Fame, and now this handsome guidebook to the Hall's inductees, teaches us the value of high ideals, impassioned leadership, and the power of the individual citizen who decides to make a difference. I hope Palmetto Profiles emboldens future generations to take the lead and help make South Carolina a place that honors its history while striving for a better, brighter future."—The Honorable Richard W. Riley, former U.S. secretary of education and former South Carolina governor
